Hunted

The Giving Chronicles #2 / 3
by Elayna R. Gallea
Hunted (The Giving Chronicles #2) by Elayna R. Gallea
Unrated

Nothing is as it seems.

The Giving Season has ended, but the onset of winter hasn’t brought Wren peace. The king is still after her, and he has more reason than ever to want her dead. In possession of magic she shouldn’t have, she’s desperate to flee the capital.

There’s just one person who can help her: Gabriel Moreau, the Hunter who chased Wren across the country, duty-bound to bring her to justice. Forced to make the most difficult decision he’s ever faced, Gabriel chooses to break his oath and vows anew to protect Wren. Now, he too will be hunted.

Together, Wren and Gabriel race across the kingdom to escape the king’s wrath. But the cost of safety is steep, and life on the run is more dangerous than ever. Even with the Hunter by her side, their bond growing stronger with each obstacle, Wren is all too aware that everything, especially the notion of safety, is a lie.

Also known as Given Book 2.

Elayna R. Gallea

Elayna R. Gallea

Elayna R. Gallea crafts stories that transport readers to enchanted realms where love, magic, and destiny intertwine. Known for her evocative world-building and emotionally rich narratives, Elayna creates settings where every detail feels alive, from the thrum of ancient magic to the quiet moments of connection between characters. Her works don’t just explore fantastical lands—they delve deep into the human experience, making the extraordinary feel intimately personal.

A native of New Brunswick, Canada, Elayna grew up surrounded by nature’s serene beauty, drawing inspiration from her quiet, forested surroundings. She believes that much of her storytelling strength comes from her ability to observe the small, unspoken moments of life, which she then magnifies through the lens of magic and myth. Though her journey as a writer began with a love for reading, it was only after years of crafting stories in her mind that she felt compelled to share her worlds with others.

Her debut series, The Binding Chronicles, quickly captured the hearts of readers, weaving themes of magical bindings, arranged marriages, and complex vampire lore into a world both mysterious and deeply emotional. With Tethered, Tormented, and Treasured, Gallea’s characters are drawn into tumultuous relationships that mirror the twists and turns of destiny itself, earning her praise for her nuanced characters and intricate plots.

But Elayna’s imagination knows no bounds. She followed up with The Ithenmyr Chronicles, a series rich in dragons, elves, and fated mates, all set against a backdrop of wonder and conflict. Her Sequencing Chronicles ventured into the realm of young adult dystopian romance, exploring a society governed by a mysterious force. With every new series, Elayna challenges her readers to confront their own ideas of fate, love, and identity in worlds where the stakes are impossibly high.

More than just an author, Elayna is a storyteller who embraces spontaneity. She’s a “pantser” by nature, preferring to let her stories unfold without rigid outlines, allowing characters and plots to evolve as she writes. This freedom infuses her novels with a sense of discovery, making her books as thrilling for her to write as they are for readers to experience.

Outside of writing, Elayna enjoys the simple pleasures of life—reading, indulging in chocolate, and spending time with her pets and family. With each new book, she invites readers into a world of magic and mystery, promising that there is always something new to uncover in the realms she creates. As Elayna continues to build her literary presence, she remains a fresh and compelling voice in the world of romantic fantasy.
